the making of a grifter

What to do when your child turns eleven and the price for her at Eastern Buffet jumps to the adult price which is double the kids price. Well yeah but we shouldn't should we? Discussion ensues. Heck I was twelve four years running when I was a kid to get the cheaper movie admission. But we don't want to teach our children to lie for personal gain do we?

Cut to last night. Little m: Dad, you don't say anything. Let me. How old are they asks the waitress. Ten says little m. Ten says gigi. We giggle like three ten year old girls then head off to do some damage to the buffet. I'm going straight to hell.
